Abstract

Most people get information about child sexual abuse from media coverage, social movements, or conversations with family and friends. Confronting Child Sexual Abuse describes how these forces shape our views of victims and offenders, while also providing an in-depth look at prevention efforts and current research. Sociologist Anne Nurse has synthesized studies spanning the fields of psychology, sociology, communications, criminology, and political science to produce this nuanced, accessible, and up-to-date account. Topics include the prevalence of abuse, the impact of abuse on victims and families, offender characteristics, abuse in institutions, and the efficacy of treatments. Written for people who care for kids, for students considering careers in criminal justice or human services, and for anyone seeking information about this devastating issue, Nurse’s book offers new public policy ideas as well as practical suggestions on how to engage in prevention work. Interactive links to studies, videos, and podcasts connect readers to further resources.

Abstract

In 1994, at the age of twenty-five, when the “terrible brokenness that comes with sexual assault” was folded deep within her body and thoughts of suicide were always close by, Erin Manning wrote The Perfect Mango at an almost feverish pitch: nineteen chapters in nineteen days, a sort of self-rescue operation, where writing became a form of making (and feeling) life otherwise. Throughout those nineteen days, and although not able to fully articulate it to herself at the time, Manning wrote her way into a “composition that asks how else life might be lived.” And in the rhythms of that composition, which was also a living, Manning was, and is, able to refuse the category and norm and stillness of “victim” (while still understanding the inheritances of violence) in order to follow instead the more-than-I as well as the joy of the “more-than of experience in the making.” Twenty-five years later, Manning allows these earlier writings to find their way back into the world, which is also a way of giving “voice to those moments of messy survival” while also asking us, who share in (and help to bear) those moments as readers, to consider “other ways of listening to the urgency that is living.” To (re)publish the book now is to give it a place in the world in a way that honors its force as something that is always beyond anyone’s claim to it, even Manning’s. In this sense, The Perfect Mango invites us, with Manning, to be in excess of ourselves, and also to consider, in Manning’s words, “how to create conditions for living beyond humanism’s fierce belief that we, the privileged, the neurotypicals, the as-yet-unscathed, the able-bodied, hold the key to all perspectives in the theatre of living.” Ultimately, The Perfect Mango and Manning’s reflections on its composition ask us to consider living “in the fierce celebration of a world invented by those modes of life which tear at the colonial, white, neurotypical fabric of life as we know it.”

Abstract

Passée relativement inaperçue lors de son vote au Parlement, la loi du 4 avril 2019 est susceptible de restreindre significativement la liberté contractuelle et, par voie de conséquence, de bouleverser les pratiques des entreprises. En effet, plus de vingt-cinq ans après l’adoption de la directive 93/13/CE concernant les clauses abusives dans les contrats conclus avec les consommateurs (B2C), la loi du 4 avril 2019 étend aux relations entre entreprises (B2B) l’interdiction des clauses abusives et comporte en outre une double liste de clauses présumées abusives. Le présent ouvrage, qui reprend les actes de la conférence organisée à l’ULB le 10 septembre 2020, a pour objectif de faire le point sur cette nouvelle législation, d’une part, en la mettant en perspective avec la doctrine et la jurisprudence antérieures relatives aux clauses abusives telles qu’elles sont réglementées dans les rapports B2C et, d’autre part, en abordant de manière très concrète un certain nombre de clauses usuelles dans les rapports B2B dont la validité risque désormais d’être remise en cause. Les clauses abusives sont également étudiées dans certains secteurs-clefs, à savoir dans le contexte des cessions d’actions et des actes de société, de la bancassurfinance, des contrats de distribution et des baux commerciaux
